Agentic GTM: How a16z, Khosla & HF0 Builders Automate Customer Acquisition
📝 Event Description
For the first time in history, anyone can build real software just by describing what they want. As Evan Spiegel put it, distribution is now the only moat that matters — products get cloned, features get copied, and what wins is how fast you reach people and how deeply they stay.
But distribution itself is being rewritten. The top 1% of consumer growth teams are deploying autonomous agents to run creative ops, distribute millions in ad spend, and scale platforms to 40M+ users with zero human intervention. The founders joining us are already living this future — one building the social platform where AI software goes viral, two building the AI systems that make growth teams obsolete.
At this curated FounderCoHo session, we skip the slides and break down the battle-tested playbooks behind AI-native growth. Whether you're scaling a consumer app, B2C SaaS or Shopify brand, you'll leave knowing how to automate acquisition loops, hit extreme capital efficiency, and build a massive growth engine with a lean team.
🎙️ The Speaker Lineup:
• LUCKY ZHANG — Founder & CEO, Sekai [Khosla Ventures / a16z speedrun / Mayfield]
